____________________________________________________________________________
On the front of your bluebook, write: (1) your name, (2) your recitation session number, and
draw a grading table, as shown in the margin to the right. Apart from for Problem 1 (for which
you should give only the answers), you must show all your work in your blue book, and BOX
your final answers (A correct answer with no relevant work shown might not receive any
credit, while an incorrect answer with some correct work might receive partial credit). With the
exception of a 1 sheet (2 page) handwritten crib sheet, no text book, notes, or calculators are
permitted. Please start each new problem on a new page of the bluebook.
